Editing Classic Mode (SSB4-Wii U)

[[File:SakuraiWiiUClassicMode.jpg|thumb|450px|Classic Mode in {{forwiiu}}.]]
The {{forwiiu}} version of '''Classic Mode''' is set up as a tournament with elimination style gameplay which lasts seven rounds. For the first time in the series, Classic Mode can be challenged by two players.

Like in the Classic Mode of {{for3ds}}, the player begins with two stocks for each battle regardless of difficulty. The [[intensity]] meter is used to set the difficulty, with higher difficulties costing more [[Coins (collectable)|Gold]] and offering better rewards. Losing and choosing to continue when the difficulty is above 2.0 costs some of the accumulated prizes and drops the difficulty by .5, also taking away some of the invested Gold to reflect the new difficulty. The prize roulette wheel is also shared with the [[Classic Mode (SSB4-3DS)|3DS version]], with the addition of passes for [[Crazy Orders]] as potential prizes.

The mode is set on a large playing field, whose background depends on the intensity chosen, becoming darker and fiercer with higher intensities:
*Intensity 0.0 - 1.9: Water/Ocean Background
*Intensity 2.0 - 3.9: Grass/Plain Background
*Intensity 4.0 - 5.9: Sand/Desert Background
*Intensity 6.0 - 7.9: Lava/Volcanic Background
*Intensity 8.0 - 9.0: Dark/Shadow Background

On the field, the player character and the opponents appear as [[trophies]]: the player, identified by a glowing red trophy base, can choose which group of opponents to fight by moving their character towards it. The [[stage]] where the battle will be fought is visible on the field under the opponent(s), though it may not be related to their series even if there is only one opponent. Overly large stages such as [[The Great Cave Offensive]] and [[75m]] are never used. After each round, the losers are ejected from the field until only the last few remain. [[Team battle]]s can occur, in which the player must choose their teammates among the characters they have previously defeated (or by their teammates in a previous team battle). During all rounds, opponents may hold trophies, [[equipment]], [[Gold|coins]], or [[Crazy Orders]] Passes, identified by the respective icons on the enemy's trophy, which are obtained only if the carrier is defeated by the player or, in a team battle, by one of the player's teammates. Enemies holding such rewards are set to a higher CPU skill level than other opponents.

The first three rounds are fought against regular characters. At the beginning of each playthrough, a random opponent is designated as a "rival": marked by a glowing blue trophy base, the rival gets stronger and drops greater prizes the longer the player holds off on confronting them. In most cases, the rival will remain on the board until the player finally defeats it, but in very rare cases, they can lose before the player can face them.

After three rounds are cleared, the empty board will be repopulated with new groups of enemies. The fourth and fifth rounds are fought against characters equipped with custom special moves, marked by an alternate trophy with a black base and appearing in an [[alternate costume]].

When the player chooses a battle in the first five rounds, one or more opponents might suddenly be replaced by an "intruder", marked by a glowing yellow trophy base, even in a team battle. Intruders are always in a permanent [[Super Mushroom|Giant]] or [[Metal Box|Metal]] state, but are guaranteed to be carrying a prize of some kind for victory.

The sixth round is against a [[Fighting Mii Team]] composed of 20 members, which appear surrounding the player on the game board in a group of nine.

In the seventh and final round, the player faces {{SSB4|Master Hand}}, and at higher intensities Master Hand with {{SSB4|Crazy Hand}} and possibly [[Master Core]]. Unlike the Classic mode of the 3DS version, the final battle is predetermined based on difficulty, and the player cannot choose to fight Master Hand alone when Crazy Hand and Master Core are available.

In ''for Wii U'', Classic Mode is a co-op mode that can play with 2 players.

==Trivia==
*This is the first Classic Mode where it is possible for any battle to be fought on a stage which is neither the [[home stage]] of any of the participants, nor a stage belonging to the [[Super Smash Bros. (universe)|''Super Smash Bros.'' universe]].
*During a team battle, if the player KOs a teammate (such as by setting off an explosive near them), they may receive a second trophy of that character after the battle. Both this and the first trophy can then be chosen as teammates, allowing duplicate characters in six- and eight-player team battles.
*Despite not being available in the mode normally, [[Jungle Hijinxs]] is shown in Classic Mode's help menu.
*[[Boxing Ring]] and [[Gaur Plain]] are the only stages shared between both versions of the game that don't appear in Classic Mode in ''for Wii U''.
*The game has a tendency to lag in the cutscene before the final battle screen for Master Hand and Crazy Hand appears when playing on difficulties of 8.0 and higher. This issue is caused by the graphical strain of the background combined with the effects used in the cutscene.
*In both versions of Classic Mode in ''Smash 4'', the announcer now identifies Master Hand & Crazy Hand for the first time.
*The Bonus stage mini-game "Target Smash!!" has been removed from both versions of ''Smash 4''{{'}}s Classic Mode.
*In both versions of Classic Mode in ''Smash 4'', there are no voice clips for the announcer saying "Game!" / "Game Set!" and there is also no voice clip for the announcer saying "Game Over!" either.
*If Bowser Jr. is defeated in the first three rounds, is battled again in rounds 4-5, and is chosen for a Team Battle, he will use his Larry alternate skin, although his name is still displayed as Bowser Jr.
